had a elos midi that I shut down before a move two years ago. recently got a 170 peninsula waterbox. I included a few images of the new setup and some of my fish.

Between tanks I did some diving.

Highlight of my life thus far probably was my 14 day trip to cocos island 350 miles offshore of costa rica on the pacific side.

The first images that are less colorful are from Cocos. Our average diving depth was 80-120 feet. I was part of a marine conservation team serving acoustic receiver stations, and tagging scalloped hammers, and tigers . There were some BIG galapagos sharks , which were amazing to see and I got to see a few solo tuna! A flash doesnt help too much with big pelagic shots as the subjects are too far.

The belize images are much more colorful. I got the opportunity to go down to the stalactites 130ish feet in the greast blue hole but it was far too dark for images. got many more micro shots here.

their preferred prey (seals, sea lions, etc) are generally at the surface. 100ish feet down they think you're just another big predator -- it's the getting in and out that can be a little scary.

We generally dove the "cleaning stations" where barber fish (you can see several in the images) reside and the sharks come in to get cleaned off, I imagine this means they are in a bit of a docile non predatory state of mind.

I've been wanting to do cozumel as I love the weightless flying sensation you get from drift dives. have they been epic? Hope the rest of your week is amazing. I know its early in the season, but wishing you whale shark sightings.

Epic- yeah.

We were here in August diving and swimming with the whale sharks.

That's how much I love the drift diving of these coral walls here. Insane.
